The Louvre reopened its Apollo Gallery nine months after crown jewels worth €88 million were stolen in a daytime heist. The gallery has been restored to its 17th-century ceremonial appearance, while stolen jewels remain missing. The museum has also strengthened security measures as part of its long-term renovation project.
The Louvre on Wednesday reopened its Apollo Gallery to visitors for the first time since crown jewels worth €88 million ($102 million) were stolen in a brazen daytime heist nine months ago.
Visitors can once again admire the gallery's gilded ceilings and Greek frescoes on the way to the nearby Mona Lisa. However, the crown jewels and their display cases are no longer part of the gallery, as the museum has restored the space to its original 17th-century ceremonial purpose.
The stolen jewels remain missing.
Louvre director Christophe Leribault said the former exhibits would be relocated elsewhere in the museum, the Associated Press reports.
